When I attempt this I get an error that the host file name is invalid or can't be found. I've tried all sorts of different setups plus looked for all the on-line help and have come up empty handed. I can update load to a new sequential file just fine but there must be a way to add a file (member) to an existing PDS. > >Any insights would be greatly appreciated! >Bill Check the ATTACHMATE Transfer Setup dialog options. You may also want to test an upload while on ISPF option 6, so you can see the generated command. I believe what you may be experiencing here is IND$FILE behavior not accepting parameters like LRECL(80) or something similar for a PDS upload request. ATTACHMATE doc is available from the vendor's website, and it may be useful to contact their support for further assistance. Scott Barry SBBWorks, Inc.
